Warehouse

Uncommon card · No. 141756

A warehouse is a building for storing goods. They are usually large plain buildings, often in industrial parks on the rural–urban fringe of cities, towns, or villages. Warehouses usually have loading docks accessible to trucks. Sometimes warehouses are designed for the loading and unloading of goods directly from railways, airports, or seaports. They often have cranes and forklifts for moving goods, which are usually placed on ISO standard pallets and then loaded into pallet racks. Stored goods can include any raw materials, packing materials, spare parts, components, or finished goods associated with agriculture, manufacturing, and production. In India and Hong Kong, a warehouse may be referred to as a godown. There are also godowns in the Shanghai Bund.
